New Worship Song - Pieces by RED

It's time once again for us to share in a passion of mine - music! I've shared before off and on, and this is going to be a staple for each weekend - a new song of worship, or praise, or straight up rock (thanks to Donald Miller for this great idea). I enjoy listening and discovering new musicians and artists, and I know you do too. I recently stumbled upon RED, and earnestly began consuming everything they've released. They straight up can rock the house! Equally impressive, however, is that they can calm down and sing beautifully too.

The song for this week is Pieces off of their debut and Grammy nominated album End of Silence. The video is a live performance, which earns them extra bonus points. The lyrics follow the video clip.

"Pieces"I'm here againA thousand miles away from youA broken mess, just scattered pieces of who I amI tried so hardThought I could do this on my ownI've lost so much along the way

Then I see your faceI know I'm finally yoursI find everything I thought I lost beforeYou call my nameI come to you in piecesSo you can make me whole

I've come undoneBut you make sense of who I amLike puzzle pieces in your hand,

Then I see your faceI know I'm finally yoursI find everything I thought I lost beforeYou call my nameI come to you in piecesSo you can make me whole!

I tried so hard! So hard!I tried so hard!

Then I see your faceI know I'm finally yoursI find everything I thought I lost beforeYou call my nameI come to you in piecesSo you can make me wholeSo you can make me whole
